2005 Boards member S250 has provided us with an in-package image of the Transformers Revenge of the Fallen Scout class toy, Dirt Boss. This also confirms the name of the forklift robot, which until now was only conjectured to be named Dirt Boss based on several auctions listed under the name.
Check out the full image by clicking on the thumbnail to the left.

Cool… but now we need a Luigi.

I'm calling him the Guidonator, as in, Guido from Cars.
shocky the spy
Yay!, now i finally know what to call my little guy!

I completely agree. And the bike is called Knock Out.

A Decepticon that doesn't look like an Insect….NIIIICE!!!

Dirt Boss huh? Well, at least they didn't call him 'Inch Up'… yeah, I said it, as absurd as Hasbro's 'slap generic name on character to keep TM' stuff can get… it's never as absurd as some of the Japanese names Takara dishes out onto their toys.
Honestly though… I don't waste time worrying about what a toy is called (except when I'm giving out b-day and Christmas lists to family), because once I buy the guy I'll call him whatever I want to.
Have to say that I'm really liking the scouts in this line. Really good figures though I'll probably only be getting Knock Out, Dead End and Dirt Boss of the five we've seen at this point… Rollbar does nothing for me and I'll need better images of the unnamed boat before I decide if he's a potential purchase or not. Of course, this is really funny considering that I've never been a big fan of scouts and only have a handful that I've kept. These are actually interesting to me.

…Nice fig, stupid name.
I DO want to see scans of the back of the card, though.
Maybe there's a fluff text reason for the name?

words fail me right here. fortunatley i dont need words:
General Magnus
Well, he could be one of Devy´s testicles.

Okay… so far in this line we have a delivery truck called "Rollbar", despite having no rollbars or anything to do with rollbars…
And now a forklift called "Dirt Boss", despite having nothing to do with dirt (though possibly something to do with bossing).
Following this logic, I anticipate the patrol boat Scout figure will go by the name of "Backstreet".
Stupid Hasbro…

this is my fav, for the fact i wished they made a Scrapper. but the motorcycle and the other ones are nice

For anyone who doesn't have this guy yet, he's really cool for a Scout, I'd definitely suggest picking one up if you see one.
kjeevahh

C'mon folks, he can move dirt all over the place! – as long as it's loaded on to a wooden pallet first.

I'll call him Spoons The Second, too. The name has really grown on me D: Dirt Boss is a cool name, but not for a fork lift 😡 A forklift is like… the least Dirt Bossiest vehicle outside of a boat or plane. Should call it like… Fork Boss or Box Boss?
Starscreamer95
Me too. I'll probaly call him Liftor instead of Dirt Boss. Yes, that means I'll be getting him.
soundwave34
I want to get Dirt Boss, I've waited for a fork-lift Transformer.
Nerdicon
He changed his name to stay out of the family business. We're on to you spoons the second!
Beastbot X
They should have called him Cheetor. Would've made about as much sense.
Stormcrow
Ill be skipping these scouts. They do nothing for me.
